This is not an example of cutting-edge technology, but rather a case of what happens when two interesting technologies are combined. It is an interactive, visual thesaurus. The two technologies that it uses are graph visualization and WordNet, which is a database of synonyms that captures word semantics. I don't think it is something I would use as a serious resource, but it's fun to play with it. To try it out, go here and click on the "try it now" image. Caveat: It requires Java, but most people already have this.
